Abstract
The interaction of acoustic waves with fluid-loaded shell structures is an ongoing area of interest in underwater acoustics, ship construction and detection. The elasticity of the structure permits strong surfaceborne wave effects, which can be significant or dominant in large structures (many wavelengths in size). The significance of surface borne waves is compounded by low loss factors, enabling them to propagate large distances on the structure, including multiple circumnavigations, on e.g. cylindrical structures, which can lead to strong resonance response.
